U+9BAF "鮯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
鮯
U+9BAF "鮯" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and complex Han character that primarily appears in historical or classical Chinese texts, where it is used as a noun referring to a type of legendary fish mentioned in ancient literature, such as the "Shan Hai Jing" (Classic of Mountains and Seas). The character is composed of the radical "魚" meaning fish, combined with the phonetic component "合" meaning to join or unite, and its traditional usage conveys a mythical aquatic creature rather than a common modern word. Due to its obscurity, it is seldom encountered in contemporary writing and is mostly of interest to scholars of Chinese paleography or mythology.
